- Frataxin polypeptides can also be detected indirectly using a labeled antibody that binds to an anti-frataxin polypeptide antibody that binds to a frataxin polypeptide.
- An anti- frataxin polypeptide antibody can bind to a frataxin polypeptide with an affinity of at least 10 4 mol 1 (e.g., at least 10 5 , 10 6 , 10 7 , 10 8 , 10 9 , 10 10 , 10 11 , or 10 12 mol 1 ).
- An anti- frataxin antibody can be a polyclonal or monoclonal antibody.
- monoclonal anti-human frataxin polypeptide antibodies are commercially available, e.g., from MitoSciences Inc., clone # 17A I I AC7.
- a frataxin polypeptide 14 can be sandwiched by a microsphere 10 conjugated to an antibody 12, and detector-conjugated antibody 16.
- a detector 18 can bind a reporter compound 20 to produce a signal that can be detected and quantified.
- a microsphere can be conjugated to a frataxin polypeptide- specific antibody. Any appropriate method can be used to conjugate a microsphere to an anti-frataxin antibody, e.g., incubation. Conditions for antibody conjugation can be varied depending on the affinity of the antibody for a frataxin polypeptide, the optimal antibody concentration on the microsphere, and the surface chemistry of the microsphere.
- a microsphere can be coated to reduce non-specific binding of serum proteins, e.g., a car boxy I tiled microsphere.

- Microsphere bound-frataxin polypeptide can be quantified indirectly using a defector-conjugated antibody.
- an anti-frataxin antibody can be used as a detector antibody, such as polyclonal antibody HFxn Ab251S.
- the detector antibody can be labeled wUh a radioactive molecule, a fluorescent molecule, a bioluminescent molecule, an enzyme, or a ligand.
- a detector antibody can be biotinylated, and levels of frataxin polypeptides in a biological sample can be measured by detecting fluorescence from an avidin conjugate, e.g., streptavidin-R-phycoerythrin.
- the concentration of frataxin polypeptides can be assessed by any instrument capable of analyzing a solid phase sandwich immunoassay.
- captured frataxin polypeptides can be measured by instruments capable of quantifying a detector-conjugated antibody, e.g. , flow cytometer.

- the level of a frataxin polypeptide in a biological fluid from a mammal is determined, then the level can be compared to a median level or a cutoff level and used to determine whether or not the mammal has FRDA. If it is determined that a biological fluid from a mammal contains a reduced or decreased level of a frataxin polypeptide, then the mammal can be classified as having FRDA. For example, if it is determined that a biological fluid from a human infant (e.g., dried-blood spot sample) contains less than 0.2 (e.g., less than 0.15, less than 0.1, or less than 0.05) ng of a frataxin polypeptide per punch, then the human infant can be classified as having FRDA.
- a biological fluid from a human infant e.g., dried-blood spot sample
- a biological fluid from a human adult e.g., dried- blood spot sample
- a biological fluid from a human adult contains less than 0.06 (e.g., less than 0.05, less than 0.04, or less than 0.03) ng of a frataxin polypeptide per punch
- the human adult can be classified as having FRDA. See, e.g., Figure 3.
- the level of a frataxin polypeptide in a biological fluid can be used in combination with one or more other factors to determine whether or not a mammal has FRDA.
- a frataxin polypeptide level in a biological fluid can be used in combination with a gait or reflex test.
- assessing the level of a frataxin polypeptide in a biological fluid can include using the level of an internal reference polypeptide (e.g., ceruloplasmin polypeptides) to confirm the quality of the sample. See, e.g., Figure 4. For example, if the elution of an internal reference polypeptide is below a permissible threshold level, then the quality of the frataxin polypeptide measurement can be insufficient to report and an additional sample or specimen may be needed for analysis.
- a level of a frataxin polypeptide that is greater than 0.08 ng/punch can be considered normal, a level of a frataxin polypeptide that is between 0.08 and 0.06 ng/punch can be considered intermediate, and a level of a frataxin polypeptide that is less than 0.06 ng/punch can be considered a decreased level.
- a mammal e.g., a human infant or adult
- This document also provides methods and materials to assist medical or research professionals in determining whether or not a mammal has FRDA.

- a professional can be assisted by (1) determining the level of a frataxin polypeptide in a biological fluid, and (2) communicating information about the level to that professional.
- a medical professional can take one or more actions that can affect patient care. For example, a medical professional can record the level of a frataxin polypeptide in a patient's medical record. In some cases, a medical professional can record a diagnosis of FRDA, or otherwise transform the patient's medical record, to reflect the patient's medical condition. In some cases, a medical professional can review and evaluate a patient's entire medical record, and assess multiple treatment strategies, for clinical intervention of a patient's condition.
